Donald Lamar Lewis, 29, turned himself in to police for the shooting death of Tavaris Sentil Love, 30.

Police say Love was traveling northbound on Blue Springs Road and about to turn west on Mastin Lake Road at around 7:10 p.m. Tuesday. Witness told officers that a large SUV-type vehicle, possibly a dark green Chevrolet Blazer, pulled alongside the passenger side of Love's vehicle.

The driver rolled down his window, leaned out and fired multiple shots from a large caliber handgun into Love's vehicle, police said. One of the bullets struck Love in the right lower abdomen. Love died during surgery at Huntsville Hospital, police said.

Police issued a warrant for Lewis' arrest, and Huntsville police Sgt. Mark Roberts said Lewis turned himself in around 4 p.m. today. No additional details were immediately available.

Based on Alabama law, drive-by shootings can be considered a capital murder meaning it could be punishable by death.
